Return & Refund Policy

If you are not satisfied with your BizCenter purchase of a product, please call 541-463-5250 for a Return Material Authorization (RMA) request within 14 calendar days of the receipt of the product. Personalized or other customized products may not be returned for refund or exchange under any circumstances unless DOA (Deal on Arrival). If the item is returned unopened in the original box, we will exchange it or offer you a refund based on your original method of payment. The product must be returned to the BizCenter warehouse within 14 calendar days of the issuance of the RMA. All products must be packed in the original, unmarked packaging including any accessories, manuals, documentation and registration that shipped with the product. A 10% open box fee will be assessed on any opened hardware or accessory. If you purchased your order using a credit card, you may be asked to provide a major credit card (Visa, MasterCard, American Express, or Discover) for BizCenter to assess the 10% open box restocking fee.

Please note that BizCenter does not permit the return of or offer refunds for the following products:

1. Product that is custom configured to your specifications
2. Opened software*
3. Electronic software downloads
4. Software upgrades

*You may return software after rejecting the licensing terms, provided the software is not installed on a computer. However, software that contains a printed software license may not be returned if the seal or sticker on the software media packaging is broken.

Note: BizCenter recommends that you (1) use a carrier that offers shipment tracking for all returns and (2) either insure your package for safe return to BizCenter or declare the full value of the shipment so that you are completely protected if the shipment is lost or damaged in transit. If you choose not to (1) use a carrier that offers tracking and (2) insure or declare the full value of the product, you will be responsible for any loss or damage to the product during shipping. Please note that the United States Postal Service (USPS) offers limited tracking capabilities and that there is a 30-calendar-day waiting period before the USPS will initiate a trace.

Proof Of Purchase

BizCenter will send you a confirmation of your order via email if you have included an email address with your order. If you have not included an email address, you will receive a confirmation of your order by regular mail when your order is shipped.

Payment Methods

The BizCenter Store accepts payment using your Visa, MasterCard, American Express, or Discover card. At the time your order is placed, BizCenter obtains a pre-approval from the credit card company for the amount of the order. Credit card billing occurs when your order ships.

We are unable to accept credit cards issued by banks outside of the United States. Debit cards and check cards have daily spending limits that may substantially delay the processing of your order.

Credit Card Security Codes

The BizCenter Store requires the credit card security code for your card for any telephone or online purchase. The credit card security code is an individual three- or four-digit number specific to your credit card that may be printed on the face of your card above the embossed account number (if American Express), or on the back of your card, on the signature panel (if Visa, MasterCard or Discover). Asking for and confirming your credit card's security code helps validate that you - and only you - are in the possession of your credit card and protects you from unauthorized use of your account.

Signature is required for delivery: If you will not be at the shipping address to accept delivery of your product, consider shipping the item to an address where someone you trust will be available to sign for your package. Please note that we are not able to adjust the shipping address once a package has left BizCenter's warehouse. Title and risk of loss to all products will pass to you on delivery.

Undeliverable Packages: Occasionally packages are returned to us as undeliverable. When the carrier returns an undeliverable package to us, please contact us to make arrangements for reshipment.
